An Introvert’s Guide to Networking and the Real Reasons Businesses Succeed

Networking is great for meeting contacts and growing your business but it often brings anxiety and stress; from trying to start conversations in a packed room to having to stand and deliver a pitch.

How more confident would you feel if you knew:

• How to identify who you should and shouldn’t approach
• What to say to start and end a conversation
• How to write the perfect elevator pitch
• How to book a follow-up appointment
• How to choose a networking event that’s right for you.

In the first half of this session, you’ll learn all five of these skills from Dragons’ Den victor and presenter-extraordinaire, “Peter the Speaker”, the most introverted extrovert you’ll ever meet!

In the second half, we’ll explore why businesses actually succeed. You’ll be setting up your own simulated businesses and competing to make the most profit as we play the exclusive business start-up team game “Cut&Run” – a bit like The Apprentice but much more fun. You’ll discover the six reasons businesses succeed or fail and how you can use them to guide any future business venture to success.

This high-energy session will balance learning life-changing skills and knowledge with having lots of fun and will provide a great chance to meet new contacts from the local area. And, if you’re anxious about coming, a warm welcome and super-friendly people are promised.

What the last audience said about this session:

“A great confidence booster.”

“Went home fully energised.”

“Really got me thinking how I reach out to potential customers.”

“Inspiring and worthwhile.”

About the facilitator

Having set up several business ventures covering both new products and services, Peter the Speaker is most well-known for having successfully pitched in TV’s Dragons’ Den.

With a background and training in psychology, and as an inventor and former stand-up comedian, Peter the Speaker combines all three skills to deliver unique, inspirational and entertaining business workshops.

As a dyslexic, Peter found conventional learning didn’t really suit him and his training style uses interactive lectures, immersive group activities and practical exercises suitable for a neurodiverse audience. His training covers the essential skills he wished he’d been taught when he first started his business journey.

Currently on a national tour, come and see why so many people say these were some of the most transformational business events they have ever attended.
